Facebook…Are You Engaging?
Out of curiousity… are the Social Media platforms helping your business? Are your “peeps” that like your Facebook business page, engaging with you?
I have been browsing around quite a few Facebook business pages, only to see so many small… Continue reading
Yet another major privacy breach for FaceBook?

Start Conversating…
Is that a typo? Start doing what?
I’ll say it again. Start conversating! I know, sound’s like I’m being silly or trying to be cute! BUT, for those of you that know me, know that I use that phrase quite frequently. We all know there’s no such word as “conversating”, but the meaning behind what I’m saying IS serious business.
Using Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and other forms of Social Media, the idea is to build relationships. The only way to do that is to engage in conversations with others. One sided conversations don’t work too well.

Can you believe this!
Last week I was delivered one of several Yellow Books I get each year. I was somewhat amazed at what was delivered. The Yellow Book has always been one of the largest books delivered in the area — and to my amazement it was almost half the size of 
last year’s.
last year’s.
What’s going on with the Yellow Book? Do you recall, back in November of last year, I talked about promoting your business yesterday and today? (If not, click the link and read it) I wrote back in November that the yellow book used to be one of the best places to market your business and that in the future things would change. WOW! I was right. The evidence of this year’s Yellow Book shows us that marketing your business is changing – and fast!
Internet Marketing is the way of the future. Google, Bing and Yahoo are evolving into a living and breathing directory where information changes in a blink of your eye. They allow people to find information anywhere in the world; but primarily focusing on local business, along with offering so much to business with websites. Now even the yellow books have to rely on Google, Bing and Yahoo to survive; offering the same tools that are available to every business owner.
How to Overcome Blogger’s Block
From time to time when you maintain a blog and have to write blog articles all the time you may suffer from a mental block. I know because it’s happened to me. You just don’t know what in the world… Continue reading Promoting Your Business Yesterday and Today…
Let’s go back about 15 years ago — when one of the best ways to market your business was having an ad in the Yellow Pages. It was the best way to find a business because just about every home and business had at least 1 or 2 phone books. As a 
business owner, if you did not get your ad in by deadline, you were left out until the following year. Businesses suffered because of it. Today, there are at least 2 different “yellow books” being published, and if you don’t advertise in both of them, you take the risk of some people not seeing you.

The Yellow Pages are beginning to rely on the search engines because their books are not being using as much as past years. You find more and more people using the yellow books as a door stop or a booster seat for their kids. More and more people are using the search engines in order to find businesses and what they have to offer.
With the age of the smart phone now upon us, we are seeing an increase in mobile searches and with that comes maps that show where a business is located. Who would have ever thought several years ago, that you’d be able to find a business on a map – on your phone, driving down the road? Let’s also not forget about how many people have computers with high speed internet connections in their homes. They, too, use the search engines to find businesses. The yellow pages become outdated quickly, as they are only printed 1 time a year, whereas the internet offers fresh information on a daily basis.

Our Experiment…
How important is blogging and social media to your business?
In June of this year I decided to experiment and increased our blogging – by writing on an average of 3 to 5 blogs per week and then posted them to FaceBook and Twitter. The blog articles where mostly geared to our business sector and informed our readers on problems with solutions, statistics, and future development of internet web marketing.
By doing so, some remarkable things happened to us and our business!
